Description

The cocoon forms flowscript API comes with a helper method form.loadXML, that retrieves data from an xml document. The current implementation however does not work with documents that are referenced not as files, but as SitemapSources, e.g. via the cocoon:/ or xmldb:// pseudo-protocol. In this case the Rhino engine is unable to resolve the ambiguity between two method signatures:

org.mozilla.javascript.EvaluatorException: "resource://org/apache/cocoon/forms/flow/javascript/Form.js", line 287: The choice of Java constructor toSAX matching JavaScript argument types (org.apache.cocoon.components.source.impl.SitemapSource,org.apache.cocoon.forms.util.XMLAdapter) is ambiguous; candidate constructors are:
void toSAX(org.apache.excalibur.xml.sax.XMLizable,org.xml.sax.ContentHandler)
void toSAX(org.apache.excalibur.source.Source,org.xml.sax.ContentHandler)
